EN 18031-3:2024 (Art. 3(3)(f) — protection from fraud) is not applicable: the device does not process money or virtual currency; subscription billing is handled exclusively by Stripe and Apple, not by the device.
5. Supporting Attestations and Conformity Assessment Bodies
The essential requirements under Article 3(1) and 3(2) are evidenced by CE-RED Attestation of Compliance ZKT-2505220105C(issued 29 May 2025) and its underlying test reports, issued by Shenzhen ZKT Technology Co., Ltd. The essential requirements under Article 3(3)(d) and 3(3)(e) are evidenced by test reports psi2601140-C01-R01 and psi2601140-C01-R02 (issued January 2026) by Shenzhen PSI Testing Co., Ltd.
Notified Body: No Notified Body was involved in the conformity assessment. Conformity was assessed by the manufacturer under Annex II (internal production control) of Directive 2014/53/EU, supported by the voluntary test reports and attestations of the independent testing laboratories named above. Shenzhen ZKT Technology Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen PSI Testing Co., Ltd. are accredited testing laboratories and are not Notified Bodies.
6. Note on the Application of EN 18031-1 and EN 18031-2
EN 18031-1 (network protection) was applied on the basis that the ST013B, together with its companion mobile application, forms part of an internet-connected system; conformity was demonstrated by test (Report psi2601140-C01-R01). EN 18031-2 (personal data and privacy) was applied because the device processes personal data over a wireless interface; conformity was demonstrated by test (Report psi2601140-C01-R02). The full applicability rationale, together with the model-equivalence statement bridging the tested model (LB02) to the base model B14A V1.5 and the trade designation ST013B, is recorded in the technical documentation.
